Bootlegging.

If ya haven't heard, there's a new Southern blog on the block: Picture The Sartorialist street style for the Deep South set (and her fans).

Caroline and I had a brainstorming brunch at The Flying Biscuit on Peachtree way back when the weather was warmer, and you need to trek yourself on over to Back Down South to see how she's brought the brand to life ever since that afternoon.

I'm honored to say I'm going to be a contributing writer as we

uncover Southern style in some series titled 7 in 7. 

First up?

Why, boots, 'a course.

So click here to read the first post that I helped kick (pun intended? Sure.) off, and click through the rest of the series for six more awesome photos.

Whew--I've worked myself up a craving to wear my Austin-bought Lucchese boots this week. Or at least pull 'em out of the box again and smell that pristine leather. Best scent in the world...
